uppppppppppp

If you are rooted, your phone will never update over OTA as it will fail the very first verification (system and boot partitions state).
Another option is to rename this file "/system/etc/security/otacerts.zip" which should prevent communication with OTA servers. You can do it directly or systemlessly with Magisk module. (Source: https://android.stackexchange.com/q...-ota-updates-on-a-nexus-device-on-marshmallow)

Bootloader shows unlocked on starting up but the greyed out OEM unlock is not present

Hello,
I have unlocked the bootloader of my A10 and it says so when booting up. However, the OEM unlocking option in developer settings has dissapeared completely, not even appearing greyed out.
The problem is that I cannot flash TWRP because the phone says it supports only official binaries. What should I do.

How to get OEM Unlock option back?
1. Open the Settings app. Tap on General Management → Date and time.
2. Use the toggle button to disable Automatic date and time.
3. Set date option will be enabled now. Tap on it, and set the date to about 10-20 days earlier.
4. Enable developer options.
4.a Go to your device Settings.
4.b Select ‘About phone’ » tap seven times on ‘Build number’.
└ This will enable Developer options under Settings.
4.c Go back to Settings » scroll down to the bottom and you’ll see Developer options menu.
5. Open developer options (in the Settings app itself), and find the option called ‘Auto update system‘. Use the toggle button to disable it.
6. Now, go back to the main screen of Setting, and then tap on Software update.
7. Disable the option ‘Download updates automatically‘.
8. Tap on ‘Download updates manually‘ option, but it will give you an error because of the wrong date, so it’s fine.
9. Restart the device.
10. Go to Settings > Developer options. The OEM unlock option should be enabled now.

Is what you did?
Otherwise you can try like this:
1. Disable Automatic date and time and set the date back 10 days
2. Restart the phone
3. Set the automatic date, if you are connected to a network, or manually reset it to the correct date
4. Restart the phone
Or you can wait a week and the OEM Unlocking options reappears

You have no problem bro, OEM might be hidden but it's stiched on. Even if you factory reset it it will remain the same. If you insist in finding it, Download a software update or press check for updates then quickly toggle your OEM

NOTE 20 Locked.

I need to flash a different firmware onto my Note 20. I haven't dealt with this before so I'm pretty new.
The situation: I removed the frp lock but I still have an OEM lock and KG Lock on it.
I have tried to mess with PIT files but no luck. A friend that crossed me locked it so I cant even go into setting to disable the OEM lock.
Wdym locked it?
You mean your screen lock?

No I mean the KG lock, my friend put some sort of lock on it that reappears after a factory reset and needs a pin to access the phone.

11. Reboot your device
12. go into the time settings and reactivate the automatic time
13. Search again for software update - > Still don't install
14. Go to Developer settings
15. deactivate OEM Unlock and reactivate
16. Go to download mode and you will don't see RMM state anymore
18. install TWRP by odin

Question How to activate OEM Unlock on the Tab A7 Lite?

I got the device today, but OEM Unlock is missing from Developer Settings. I tried the date and time hack, but it didn't work. I put it 15 days back. Then a month back. Then I put it to the earliest possible date, January of 2004. When I reboot the device, OEM Unlock still does not show up.
How do I get past this? I can't even proceed to anything without activating OEM Unlock.
T220, OEM Unlock won't show up even after date trick.
Ok I got OEM Unlock to show up. Follow these instructions EXACTLY.
Factory Reset Device (Sorry but this will happen when you unlock anyway, and has to be done first.)
Skip everything on the first boot setup including WiFi settings (you'll connect to the Internet later).
I did nothing else, didn't even enable dark theme.
Enable developer options and disable automatic system updates from there.
Connect to a WiFi network.
DISCONNECT from internet after a few seconds. You'll see it trying to update things in the pull down menu, disconnect from internet, you don't want it to update anything. It just needs to be connected long enough to update the day and time to the correct day and time, and register your device. If it didn't work, it didn't register your device yet.
For me, it did get to the point where there was a notification that said, "Finish setting up your Tab A7 Lite." DO NOT finish setting anything up, but do make sure internet is disconnected. Ignore notification, but you should see that.
Disable automatic software update. Settings > Software Update > turn off.
Go to General > Date and Time settings and select for the time to be set manually (don't touch time zone). Set the date to be EXACTLY 10 days BEHIND from your current date.
Go to Developer Options, and OEM Unlock should be there!
If it still doesn't work, you may have to go to extreme measures, but I didn't have to. But first just make sure you did the above steps EXACTLY.
Go here for extreme measures if you did EXACTLY like above and still didn't work (my instructions above were a bit different) https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/a7-2017-w-binary-9-rmm-state-unlock.4057831/post-82049513

Does this technique work for any T220 in any region? I'm thinking about getting the T220, but I read in another post by @tom.android that Samsung doesn't allow OEM Unlock in North America.
Update - Can confirm that this works! Thanks xbt-!
